Should have waited to see what the CAD did with the hourly. Turns out it broke and I owned myself out of a good move. Hopefully as I build confidence with this new platform I'll give trades more time.

Took a couple less than stellar setups. One from last night that would have hit my 5 pip target, but in hind sight the risk/reward wasn't there. Thankfully got out without a loss. This was a bit of an over trading, revenege trade after failure to take the setup for the big move down. tisk...

Pretty par... got busy reading zerohedge, chart shows the outcome -

Busy day at schoolzzz, just fired up the trading platform ten minutes ago. Apparently I missed some massive moves. Funny thing is, I had a price alert set for AUD/USD this morning, the peak before the crash missed it by some fractional pips. I just chalked it up for a miss... what a move that...

Long EUR/USD - 1.47439 Covered EUR/USD - 1.47469 3 pips Pretty weaksauce, I know. Again, some patience would have yielded 6+ pips, which is only 2 off from my target... actually just hit the target plus the spread while I was typing. Oh well... so now I have no problem putting on...

Not sure what exactly I'm doing today, but apparently today is scalp day. Maybe I'm just feeling the new program out... not too sure. Remember, my goal is 14 pips PER WEEK on a standard account. If I get that 3 pips at a time... why should I care? Short EUR/USD 1.47724 Covered (about...

Covered AUD/USD - 0.87307 3.4 pips Like usual, broke down solidly after I covered. Would have easily been the 8-10 pip move I was looking for. Eh... one of these days I'll stop stressing and wait it out.

Back at it... Short AUD/USD - 0.87341 Enjoying the 1k lot sizes, working with pocket change makes it easier to pull the trigger. Low spreads are great too, nice to not start the position 5 pips in the hole.

x infinity TV really is the waste of time brain rot that our parents told us it was.

Tenth call to forex.com tech support, no help whatsoever. Screw them. FXCM micro spreads are all <2 pips for the pairs I trade, often as low as 1 pip during NY session (compared to 3-6 pips for forex.com), and they can't be any more crooked or dishonest than forex.com or any other bucket. If...

If anyone cares - no, I'm not dead... no, I haven't given up. STILL trying to get the lagging chart issue resolved with forex.com. I've been looking to switch to a new shop, but the ability to talk to a real, live person after only a single ring is enjoyable, as is the ability to trade metals...

This is unreal... four calls to tech support later and the problem simple reoccurs within five minutes of each "solution," then proceeds to get worse the longer the program is open. After fifteen minutes or so the charts/quotes are so far off (not even lagging, just randomly all over the place)...

reg...istration In CT you do not pay tax on unregistered vehicles and are not required to carry insurance on them either.

I never said she wasn't playing "business." It's all the people that are giving her the moral high ground that I'm disgusted with. The banks are crooks, no one is denying this. As pointed out, they're stealing from us all in many different ways. That's all beside the point though. The...

Truth. I think my post was pretty obviously not directed at the handful of people in this type of situation. Give me your honest estimate on how many cases are truly hard times, such as yours, and how many are simply typical Americans spending money they don't have. When I live in a land...

I'll grant you that luck does play a roll. A long enough or hard enough streak of bad luck will do anyone in. Understand, though, that I spend VERY LITTLE. I don't live the high life, I drive a pos beater, hell, I don't even have a TV. About the only thing I waste money on is my race car...

Signed up for an Oanda practice account today. Going to take some getting used to. I'll see how it goes.

Wrong. I hate her because I pay my CC bills, IN FULL, on time. There's no reason she isn't allowed to do the same. SHE took on the debt. SHE decided to carry the debt. SHE chose to default on the debt rather than pay it off in full. It's because of whiny, entitlement idiots like...

I don't know how any of you can be siding with her. I've got a really simple solution her, pay off your balance and they won't get a dime out of you. The bank didn't force her to spend money she didn't have. The bank didn't force her to carry a balance. The bank isn't forcing her to make...

You know, it seemed like a good idea at the time, but I was literally trading my P/L because the chart is lagging in minutes at this point. Happy to not have taken a loss, but getting fed up with this hack-ass shop. Time to go bitch out tech support. Covered AUD/USD 0.86294 1.1 pips...
